BGaming’s product chief tied the release directly to prior results. Julia Alekseeva, CPO at BGaming, said duel slots have proven to be a hit in the past, with titles like Clash of Gods Power Duel driving strong engagement, so the studio decided to take this further with Johnny vs Chicken. She added that the studio took two of its most recognizable characters and brought them together in what she called the ultimate BGaming IP showdown.

That language, an “IP showdown” between established characters, points to where the strategy could go next.

Johnny vs Chicken reads less like a finished idea. It reads more like a first test of a shared-universe approach to slot IP.

David further emphasised the impact such a tax rise would have on high street workers and communities.
